The 3D catalog: game boxes on wooden shelves, with the cat sitting at the counter next to its greeting.

The catalog in 3D

The same catalog has a room you can walk around in. The cat behind the counter is the AI Catbot, and they pick real games from it when you tell them what you feel like playing. Nothing is for sale, here or in there. Go in from here and this game is already out on the counter, with more like it waiting on the shelf next to it.

How it feels

You gently guide a murmuration of starlings through a sunlit forest clearing, feeling a quiet, rhythmic connection as they follow your moves.

What players say

Players describe this as more of a trippy interactive music video than a game. You swing orbs to guide birds as they eat colorful insects, but there is no progression or reason to keep playing beyond about an hour. It works well for showing VR to newcomers, though some wish they could swap the music.
